Oh, and you might also like to see Ed’s original riposte.Įarlier today, I came across a piece of negative marketing of a type which always irritates me. And if your workflow would be to take uncorrected linear gamma scans direct into Photoshop, for some reason Vuescan’s 48bit output is much more malleable than Silverfast’s 48bit “HDR”. I took some time to understand it better, I managed to calibrate it, and when my scanner, or Silverfast, causes problems, it’s always useful to be able to fall back on Vuescan for issue solving.
Ed & I had an email conversation and it all ended up perfectly amicable even if we agreed to disagree. Well, enjoy, but please note it is water well under the bridge, indeed we can’t even see the bridge any more. Maybe you’ve come here to observe a bit of wild-eyed flaming of Ed Hamrick and Vuescan. I’m tempted to take it down, but I’ll leave it for historical interest. August 2014: Apparently this post is the most popular on my site.
